Right the first thing you need to know is that there are :
24 Days To Go To Christmas!
So if you have not done so already, time to get your scates on!

Look who is Home! Even woolier than before, but she has her Spa Day booked next Wednesday. I braved the traffic, which actually wasn’t too bad as it is Friday and I think a lot of people “work from home” today, and got to the Kennels at 10.30am. She was very pleased to see me. They said she had been very good and had a lovely time.
I forgot to show you all the other day, but we had a sprinkling of snow the other morning, on top of the heavy frost, so it was fun de-icing all the vehicles. It also snowed a little bit again last night so it took me half an hour to de-frost my car which had not been out for two weeks! It was FREEZING!
Getting Coco from Kennels I have to drive past where I used to live with my Parents and where my Grand Parents lived so a trip down memory lane! I had the Christmas music playing in the car and I felt very Christmasy and nostalgic! Especially remembering all those family Christmases from the past.
DH is out tonight at another light switch on and the final one is on Sunday for our Village. Tomorrow we have lots to do including getting our tree and are out in the evening and then Sunday we have everyone round to us for breakfast whilst we decorate the tree and the house.
I hope you lovely lot have a wonderful first weekend of December and the start of Advent.
Hugs & Love, Susie & Coco xxx
Those drives past your old homes really does stir the memories and tug at the heart strings. Nostalgic to walk down those memories in your mind, missing those no longer here. Coco is definitely not letting you out of her sight for a while!! Is that your office? I don’t remember seeing that angle of your kitchen before!! Perfect placement to keep an eye on the cooking and baking!
Welcome home, Coco – you were missed! Your mince pies look delicious, Susie!
